Didn't happen.

Okay, I blew it big time. You know the album I was supposed to be listening to all this past week, so I could review it for today? Lose This Life, from Tait?

Yeah.

Didn't happen.

I kept putting it off, and by Sunday, I realized I hadn't listened to it even once.

Sure, I could have listened to it on Sunday and Monday, given a quick review... but that would not have been right. I wouldn't be giving it the same chance that I've been giving everything up until now.

So, no review for today. That will happen one week from today.

Which begs the question, what about today?

Well, let's call it "Time Out Tuesday," for the break from the regularly scheduled topic.

I suppose that random thoughts will do for today.

I saw about the last minute of the Super Bowl on Sunday. Just in time to see the upset. I'm not into football at all, but since the Super Bowl is usually such a blowout, it might've been nice to see this one all the way through.

I did see the ad for Iron Man... online, about four hours after the game ended. Absolutely amazing. I can't wait to see this film.

Speaking of, Iron Man is going to have some sort of crossover with the new Incredible Hulk film. Since both films are being made by Marvel, they can do that, and establish that both films take place in the same "universe." And, it certainly sets up a possible future Avengers film.

On the subject of the Hulk, I found a list on the internet that tells every reason that David Banner "Hulked" out in the old TV show (which I loved). Here it is. My favorites? 's 3, 24, 47, and 50. Man, I miss that show.

I'm still dealing with time issues. Never enough of it. I'm getting a little better, though. It is weird - its been a while since I was busy. I mean, really busy, to the point of just not being able to squeeze things in. I'm adapting.

I know I'm probably not in the majority, but I'm loving the Writer's strike. I find I'm watching very little TV, and what I am watching, I'm doing more passively - drawing or something else while it plays in the background.

I'm really beginning to enjoy the seemingly permanent scent of chlorine on my skin. Weird, huh?

I've decided to give Spider-Girl another try. Several times, I've picked up Spider-Girl comics, just because the fans are so amazingly devoted (saving it from cancellation on multiple occassions). I haven't been able to really get into it, but I thought, since I'm taking a break from Spider-Man for a while, I'll try it again.

Along with my regular blog, I am participating in an online reading club called the Steve Austin Book Club. We look at one main book each month, and the participants post things in the downtime. Check it out.

It seems that J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter from DC Comics, may be the next character to take the not-so-permanent dirt nap in the upcoming Final Crisis. Of course. He's one of the characters that was part of the Justice League International that I enjoyed so much. To tell the truth, since they've messed with the character so much over the last couple of years, it may not be that big a loss. It just amazes me that DC didn't take advantage of the changes of the character that were established in the Justice League Unlimited cartoon. It really made the character better by taking away some of his powers (his list of powers was basically everything Superman could do, plus a lot more).

The Watchmen movie is coming. I love the comic book series so much that I dread this. I can't help it. I just find The Watchmen to be the finest use of the comic book medium, and to see it shoe-horned into a 2 hour film? My hopes are not high.

I've seen the preview for the new parody film Superhero Movie. I hate that it looks pretty good, because I know it will stink. Yet, I will eventually see it. Ugh.

Photobucket

Will Smith will be playing a superhero in the upcoming Hancock. The preview looked pretty good, but I'll have to wait for more on this one.

Hmm... I think that'll do for now.

I'll type at you later, folks.
